Super Cool Photo Manips by Mariano Villalba

March 25, 2009 from PauloGabriel's blog

For us here at Abduzeedo, photo manipulation is a true art. When you have liberty to create, you get yourself a real challenge in your hands: to design a cool photo manipulation that others might believe is an actual scene.

When people get such challenge, you get to know who's actually good, and who's not. The good ones make you believe what you're seeing... they make it smooth and you just gotta show it to someone else. And that's actually why we're featuring Mariano Villalba today. This guy's photo manips are totally cool. Some are surreal, some macabre... but everyone sets you in a storyline, ant that's the idea. For more of his work, visit his profile at DeviantART. You'll really enjoy it. Hope you like it. Cheers! ;)

MSNBC New Background Design in Photoshop
MSNBC New Background Design in Photoshop
In 2007 I wrote a Photoshop tutorial for PSDTUTS that was a user request, actually it was a request from not one but quite a few readers, they wanted to know how to create the MSNBC header effect. Back in those days it was a brand new design with a very colorful background image on the header. Now in 2010, they have a new website design and I was invited to help them with the background image.
